Whats with the World of Warcraft Crowd?

I played a paladin to 50. You're doing it wrong, obviously.

Assuming all players are experienced players and knows how to play their role, the warrior/rogue group will level much faster than the troll SK/Iksar monk group...

This assumes all else is equal, drrigs, so his point still stands.

Meh! I play a L45 Cleric and I could care less what classes/races I'm grouped with as long as we can keep the pulls rolling. My biggest requirement is that you're fun to chat with in group. Because a good group is going to last hours and nothing but silence, or listening to someone act like an arrogant ass makes for a truly awful grouping experience.

First off, you listed cleric, enchanter, shaman, and rogue as 4 of the 6 classes that people will accept into groups, assuming that it was (just) their lack of an xp penalty that was the reason, when actually it is mostly because each of those classes is the absolute best class for what they do. You can't match, let alone beat, a cleric healer or an enchanter CCer or a shaman buffer/debuffer or a rogue DPSer.


Getting past that, I am probably one of the most picky people when it comes to groups on this server. I tend to prefer maximizing my xp per hour over just about anything else. But even I don't categorically refuse to group with hybrids.

Now of course I will look for a rogue, a mage, or a necro for DPS before I'd consider a monk (unless we need a puller/FD splitter) or ranger.

And yeah I'd prefer a warrior tank, although given the threat SK and pals can fire off from level 9 when warriors don't have the sweet procs until much, much later, I don't mind hybrid tanks at all.

And as far as bards? They're bards. So what they eat 40% more xp than someone else might? They can do enough nice stuff to make up for that penalty, especially when you're lacking a haster or slower or CCer, or if you're in a caster-heavy group.


It's almost all about the player and not the class, really. I'd rather fill a dps slot with a good bard than a bad rogue. I'd rather have a good iksar shadowknight tank than a bad halfling warrior tank. Etc.

Find some friends who are good players and, no matter what all of your races and classes are, you'll do well.

If you think Steaks represents the average R99 player, you are dumb.

You do realize what you just did, right?

No, he is pretty much the quintessential R99 player.
